Hi James, I have no idea. You might contact your local humane or animal rescue groups. They often have sponsors that help with just such needs. Also there are pets for vet programs which might be able to assist you too. I appreciate the question and it is something that is worthy of some more research.

I am a disabled veteran living on a monthly disability check and I have a service dog to help me walk because of a back injury, and I live off foodstamps and recieve section8 housing. I too have a hard time paying for dog food, toys, and treats to keep my dog happy and content. Who could I contact for assistance in the Ayer, Massachusetts area?

Thanks for stopping by Henry. The organization is new and not many people know about it. Unless you have seen homeless people and their pets I doubt it would cross your mind. I’ve been working to find unusual charities that are not well know but that are worth supporting.

This is the first time I’m hearing of this organization and of this cause, for that matter. I guess sometimes we really are not aware of situations around us. Of course, we think of the homeless and we are aware of their condition. But to go a step further and think of the welfare of the pets of these homeless people, that requires a deep sense of compassion and sensitivity. I wish the organization more power.
